"Andrew at Steep Ravine, Marin County, California" is a black and white photograph taken by Dorothea Lange, a renowned American photographer known for her documentary work, particularly during the Great Depression. The image, dated between 1957 and 1965, captures a young boy, Andrew, walking down a gravel road in a rural setting. The photograph's simple composition and candid nature are characteristic of Lange's style, highlighting the everyday lives of ordinary people. The image evokes a sense of isolation and vulnerability, emphasizing the child's smallness against the vastness of the landscape. This photograph is a testament to Lange's ability to capture the human experience in its rawest form, making it a poignant and enduring work in the history of American photography.
